Richmond Shepard & Leslie E. Hughes in LORD BUCKLEY & MARILYN At The Richmond Shepard Theater 11/4-28 2009/10/27
6 Nov
If you are in NYC go see my fabulous friend in her new play… Don’t hold it against her (or me) if you are one of the chosen ones called to the stage, forced to wear funny hats while being a human puppet for Lord Buckley during the first act. You know I adore being a puppet for any man especially while wearing a hat that reminds me of BLOSSOM.
Don’t say I didnt warn you…Boop-boop-a-doop, boop-boop-a-doop!
LORD BUCKLEY
AND MARILYN
Lord Buckley, America’s Legendary Hip Comedian, Jazz Storyteller, Semanticist, & Sometime Philosopher died of old age in 1960 at the age of 54. Marilyn Monroe died of a similar ailment at 36 in 1962. These two legends who shared a time slot here on Earth are brought vividly to life by Richmond Shepard and Leslie E. Hughes.
In riffs by the master of the “Hip Semantic”– a taste of the wit and brilliance of Lord Buckley, plus Will Manus’s play “Marilyn’s 2 Chance,” which explores “What if Marilyn had survived, lived for years in obscurity, and has decided to audition to play the lead in Tennessee Williams’ “Orpheus Descending” on Broadway”?Playdates:
